Amulet graced by gems
clad for stratum prow
tawny glyphs
margin of witticism
& quagmire
extravagant dictum
trivialize shores trails
summer ousted
& waves of wrangles
sundered the ocean
& swapped my spirit
in crimson burst
swirl to scatter
In demolishing ruins
& twilight crumble
slump of man
glittering Phoenix fire trail
scribble a cyan-xantos rhyme.
bore a shallow rostrum
defective soothsayer
haunts dreams?
hilltops & both
oceans & skies
cyclone of emotions
&
lethargic sadness
soul storm mulling.

their first and last names? And surely no verse allowed!*)
(( But, I made this one up. Heh-heh!))
Sorry…we simply haven’t a second to call..
We are not cheap, oh, no, nothing like that at all.
Been traveling up and down this great state.
See our stunning picture, next to the Golden Gate?
That’s our Jenny, my, oh my, she’s so tall.
Ben and Tommy, as you see, play football!
Mom and I, are sure getting lots older…..
She’s already two inches below my shoulder.
Doggie Dan is a barrelhouse of fun.
See him there, chasing a cat in the sun?
Granny, nah, she ain’t in our picture.
Old and young~ heck, that’s no good mixture!
Do message us, if and when you can.
Nobody writes emails, they are….‘also rans.’
Limits on personal words, we know sound crazy.
Least to Grandma, who we know, one day.
Will soon be pushing up those daisies!
So bye, till next year, we’ll send more of these.
We just adore mulling about saying,” Cheese!”
Grandma wastes all her time at a poetry site?
Makes her feel good ~ better than being tight!
Love From All!

MERRY CHRISTMAS ANEW
Kisses mulling by an open fire,
Or snowflakes falling on our nose,
Gifts of love ...is what we all desire,
On Christmases now and long ago
Everybody knows that ginger spice in apple pie,
A dash or two now don’t be slight,
Children excited pacing to and fro,
Hope to have a slice tonight,
They know that Christmas, just hours away
There’ll be presents, treats, and goodies that whole day,
And on that very night won’t close their eyes,
Til Mama softly sings them, Silent Night,
And so, for those who are a child at heart,
A Holiday of old or Christmas anew,
Whatever the way, may it be always said, Merry Christmas, to you
Still shallow waters,
Fish unseen, hugging the brackish bed,
Salt grass and saltwort give ample shade
And shelter from hungry predators
That fly around the insurmountable
Pinnacles of the surrounding hills.
The lad sits quietly on a small wooden pier,
Mulling on thoughts that elevate his soul.
No vale of darkness shall invade his being,
At least not while he rests before the stretch of water.
For there alone he feels at peace.
Indeed the quiescent waters refresh him.
Even the flapping of some solitary sea duck
Will not ruffle his meditative mind.
Suddenly he hears voices and a boat arrives
To end his peaceful stay on the water way.

Here let me paint you a drawing
My skin crawling
Something stirring and calling
As the leaves begin falling
It's appalling
That people are always squabbling
And gossiping
Yet another mauling
It's no longer enthralling
The temperature of the water freezing or scalding
People aging, greying and balding
This process has no halting
Most spills their guts like a geyser
Life's a , but I like her
With every fiber
Many think they're the , but they need a diaper
I got the job done with or without a screwdriver
Close and far from barbwire
While occasionally sipping hard cider
Or Budweiser
I'm no liar
Or one to preach to the choir
Nearby a campfire
And 4 car tires
I stood with a Rottweiler
Feeling lazy or hyper
Harmless like a Sandpiper
Damgerous like a Pit Viper
Harmless like all these ass wipers
Dangerous like a sniper
Harmless like a Striper
Dangerous like a Tiger
Harmless like the town crier
Dangerous like a Black Widow or Red-Back spider
Harmless like always being nicer
Dangerous like the edge of a pizza slicer
It's time for the next shock
Most thought they could fix it with a pep talk
Meanwhile close by flew a red hawk
Before I decided to jet off
Dealt with pests lots, put them in a headlock
Then they came to a dead stop
Nearby the bedrock
It's revolting
Far too much overindulging
And information withholding
Dangerous like exposure to molding
In all directions it's pulling
I'm still mulling
Meanwhile they continue at lulling
So that they are the ones controlling
In pitch blackness
Full of sadness
Reaching a state of madness
The pattern becoming erratic
It's nearly always tragic
With endless havoc
I almost had it
And went bat
But I partook in Black Magic
In a basement as well as an attic
In the end the outcome was anti-climactic
Be most willing to cast your lot:
In brisk mulling sharp poke spears plot.
Craft hides my face in a plain look,
To fit rare trace in a shrewd hook.
It seems quite clear in mime and mask,
To front sly cheer that fatal task.
I style a smile through my bright mask,
Guile is worthwhile in my set task.
What aids the harsh in vile refrains
Is but good blush to anchor gain.
Obsess odd rhyme for timely pierce,
I bide my time with mindset fierce.
Thus what I speak strings loaded chance,
For my words streak a hidden dance.
To each a mask that stokes the lies,
As fear can bask sad coward's sigh.
What horrors here come forth to greet
In furious fear on dubious streets?

Answer apt art
Craft clever cure
Rupture raids rut
Odd orbs obscure
Sense sanguine sire
Treats touch trite
Ink inner ire
Claim charming cites
Verse vibrant vest
Echoes embrace
Rich ripples rest
Self seeing saves
Etchings express
Sour senses slave
Rapture ripe rays
Hurts hurling hoarse
Yield younger yea
Mind mulling moss
Expound end-aye
Note nimbus nice
Obsess odd-prize
Work wordings wise
Hideous hurts heal
Etchings erase
Reveal rich reel
Each end embrace

(Note: This is an Aacrostic poem with Alliteration.)
Unfluffed, unearthed and uncrated my eyes just will not sleep
beneath a dome of dark this heart is mulling over way too deep
Unfettered, unbolted and unrestrained I float to heaven's nook
to watch the stars shine brightly as a summer's bubbling brook
Surely sounded and surmised I suddenly close my eyes and pray
Like moon asleep by midnight hour I have nothing left to say
Sedentary, secluded and seated at the desk, I write a poem true
about the way I feel tonight, and Oh ! how much I'm missing you
Tried and tested I trod towards, ... knowing even gold can't stay
like stars of night after spreading light even them must go away
Feeling thankful for the times we had I know that love endures
Feeling floored at the font of loss I know there is no simple cure
for this....
A small child sat and watched the rain
nose pressed hard 'gainst window pane
mind mulling, musing, pondering
wistful, wishing, wandering
filled with fantasies, far off places
cities, forests, wide-open spaces
Formative years yearning
reading, imagining, learning
prospective possibilities
alluring locations overseas-
But grown-up responsibilities
forced a shifting of priorities
and nose stayed pressed against the glass
settled and still, as life went past
An old man sat and watched the rain
nose pressed hard 'gainst window pane
dreaming about what 'might have been'
wishes blow by in Winter's wind
like scuttling leaves, used up and dry
silent sorrow in pensive sighs
Note naughty nude
Charm crafty crude
Wake weary words
Help hurry heard
Taste tickles touch
Make mingles much
Lease laughter loud
Prime pickle proud
Sense stealing stance
Cast clumsy chance
Nude naked noise
Veer vaunted voice
Grow gravy grand
Face flavours friend
Tryst troubles touch
Moves mulling much
Please primal pace
Freeze floating face
Bright blossoms bloom
Rest ripples room
Thrill touchy taste
Prize pretty paste
Warm welcome wild
Melt motives mild
Set surplus storms
Nude naughty norms
